THIS PROCEDURE EXPLAINS HOW TO REGENERATE/CHECK YOUR BATTERIES AND CALIBRATE THE
BATTERY CHARGE INDICATOR
USEFUL ADVICE:
• CHARGE THE BATTERIES EVERY NIGHT AFTER USE, EVEN IF THEY ARE NOT COMPLETELY
DISCHARGED;
• ALWAYS USE THE “BATTERY SAVE” & “TIMER OFF” FUNCTIONS TO INCREASE YOUR METER’S
AUTONOMY;
• THE MAXIMUM CAPACITY OF THE BATTERIES AND BATTERY CHARGE INDICATOR’S ACCURACY
IMPROVES BY UP TO 20% IF YOU CARRY OUT MANY BATTERY TEST CYCLES;
• DO NOT REPLACE THE BATTERIES: FIRST CARRY OUT 3 TO 5 BATTERY TEST CYCLES UNTIL YOU
RECOVER THE MAXIMUM CAPACITY OF THE BATTERIES.
“BATTERY TEST” INSTRUCTIONS & PROCEDURE:
1. Before carrying out the test, connect the meter to the original battery charger
:
• Turn on the meter;
• Press the Home key (fig. 1);
• Select the word “CONFIG” and press “ENTER” to confirm (fig. 1);
• Select “METER SETUP” and press “ENTER” (fig. 2);
• Select the word “BATT. TEST” and press the “RIGHT” keys to select “ON”;
• Press “ENTER” to confirm.
• Carefully read the various screens, pressing “ENTER” in succession;
• In the last instructions window, select “START” and press “ENTER” to start the test.
WARNING:
the procedure will be cancelled if you select “exit” on any screen.

IMPORTANT ADVICE:
•
Do not connect any type of load to the “F” input connector (LNB, TV head-end, amplifiers, etc.).
•
Extract the conditional access module (CAM), if it is present in your meter.
2. The battery test takes approx. 12 hours (charging/discharging/recharging activities and
measurement of the battery autonomy), during this time the meter must not be used. At the end of
the test the meter will turn off automatically. In order to make sure that the test has been carried
out correctly, all the meter’s commands are blocked except for the reset function, which remains
active so that the meter can be turned off if necessary.
3. The batteries will be completely charged at the end of the test.
4. To check the battery test results, enter “METER SETUP” (fig. 2), select “BATTERY TEST” function
and read the results: for example 220BBLY (fig. 3) = 220 minutes. The “Y” of YES confirms that the
battery is still good enough, whereas an “N” for NO indicates that it could be faulty, too deteriorated
or that the cycle was interrupted.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
If the test is interrupted using “reset”, the battery charge indicator may provide incorrect indications,
therefore repeat the battery test procedure.
∗ The displays shown in this guide may change according to the model and are subject to change
without notice.
If you connect your meter, using the S.M.A.R.T. Pro program, from the USB port to the
PC, you can download the screens shown above.
